this is happening later today, drop by the unconscious processing session at 3.50 🌡️

Are you at @assc28.bsky.social #ASSC28? On Wednesday I will present a poster on the causal relationship between choice history biases and catecholamines (noradrenaline / dopamine). With @donnerlab.bsky.social et al.

Happy to share the first project of my PhD at #ASSC28, on how voluntary strategies modulate the reading response and how this relates to suggestibility and metacognitive efficiency. Appreciation to my collaborators, and to @fahrenfort.bsky.social for his support and supervision on this project.

Are you at @assc28.bsky.social #ASSC28? Later, @stijnnuiten.bsky.social will present exciting cross-species results on the interaction between latent behavioral states, pupil-linked arousal, and V1 activity. Great collab w/ @psterzer.bsky.social @svangaal.bsky.social @pennartz.bsky.social et al.

I will be presenting some of my postdoc work during the very last session of the conference. would love to hear your feedback 📊📢 @assc28.bsky.social #ASSC28

a small suggestion for the catering @assc28.bsky.social, @ademertzi.bsky.social #ASSC28, it would be great if the people serving would know what vegan is or at least what the ingredients of the food are. thank you!

Starting tomorrow! Join us for lots of ECR talks about topics from across the field of working memory research!

Last week not only I defended my PhD, but I also got to organized this amazing workshop with some amazing people. Thanks again to @ibbamsterdam.bsky.social for making this meeting possible!

Finally the Version of Record of our paper "Criterion placement threatens the construct validity of neural measures of consciousness" is out in @elife.bsky.social as *fundamental* and *compelling*! doi.org/10.7554/eLif....

Very happy this is finally out 🎉. In this paper, we show that conf. reports are biased by a visual illusion, an asymmetrical base rate and a payoff scheme. Crucially, we show that only the visual illusion affects subj. experience, suggesting decision bias leaks onto confidence reports.

If you are in Amsterdam on June 6 and predictions are your gig you will want to check out this very cool symposium I'm hosting and presenting in. Speakers: @eelkespaak.bsky.social, @clarepress.bsky.social, Ruth van Holst, @degeelab.bsky.social. See the program below.

(couldn't wait till Monday because I'm impatient) this lovely preprint has the last part of my phd work and now is out and about 🎉🎊. will write a thread on Monday. stay tuned 📻. osf.io/preprints/ps...

To celebrate the defence of my PhD, and thanks to @ibbamsterdam.bsky.social, I will host a symposium titled "Vision as prediction: learning, action, and biases" on June 6. Program, registration and more information here: bit.ly/43reOgR

⚠️ Come see our new preprint, in which we (@degeelab.bsky.social, Jasper Zantvoord, @psterzer.bsky.social, @fahrenfort.bsky.social & @svangaal.bsky.social) show that phasic (task-evoked) and tonic (baseline) arousal distinctly shape human decision bias! (1/6) dx.doi.org/10.21203/rs....

In @elife.bsky.social: Perceptual and attentional impairments of conscious access involve distinct neural mechanisms despite equal task performance doi.org/10.7554/eLif... by Samuel Noorman with @timostein.bsky.social and Simon van Gaal. Well done Samuel!

Four large Dutch universities, including Leiden University where I work, have decided to throw international psychology bachelor programs under the bus in an effort to appease the rightwing government. Here's my blog why this is a terrible idea. eiko-fried.com/cutting-inte...

got a paper accepted today, maybe life is good after all

Today at 16:00 (Central European Time), Axel Cleeremans (@axc.bsky.social) will present at our Cognitive Neuroscience Seminars on his lab's work on the value of consciousness. For those who want to attend, please find the relevant information (e.g. Zoom link) below. We're excited to have you, Axel!

Yesterday I spent an hour trying to put files in OSF because you can't simply drag an entire folder. For anyone else struggling, there is an R package called osfr that you can use to copy your whole repo into your OSF 🙏🙏🙏

🎉 Our paper "Criterion placement threatens the construct validity of neural measures of consciousness" is now out in eLife! 🎉 TL;DR: Both simulations and empirical data show that you should not post-hoc sort neural data based on subjective measures of consciousness. elifesciences.org/reviewed-pre...

Now that more people are here, I’m signal boosting this great methods primer by my PhD student Chris. Chris is currently in the market for a postdoc, and comes highly recommended! #neuroskyence

thanks to the iBBA VU our workshop on Info. Theory is in full swing with Dr. Ince (@robince.bsky.social) giving an intro. lecture on info. theory measures. Dr. Canales-Johnson (@canalesjohnson.bsky.social) will follow with a lecture on how to use these measures to study perception and cognition

👇👇👇

i need some empathetic comments 😪

very excited to be at the ASSC and even more excited to be in tokyo 🗼 #ASSC27 I will be presenting some of my postdoc work tomorrow at 14:45 in the Unconscious Processing session. drop by so I can tell you how we replicate some crucial unconscious processing findings.

Below a link to the recording of "Criterion placement threatens the construct validity of neural measures of consciousness", a talk I gave a couple of weeks ago ate the Consciousness Club. Thanks @smfleming.bsky.social and @nadinedijkstra.bsky.social for inviting me! metacoglab.org/consciousnes...

my first paper ever is out now in PNAS 🎉🔥!! (⁠ ⁠ꈍ⁠ᴗ⁠ꈍ⁠) (w/ Simon van Gaal, @juliaha.bsky.social, @smfleming.bsky.social and @fahrenfort.bsky.social) we introduced a novel method to distinguish between effects in subjective experience from effects in decision-making. let me know what you think!

Groundhog for R is so good for reproducibility. You just load your packages with it and voila, anyone who runs your script will have the same package versions. One less hurdle to reproducible code. Props to the team at Wharton Credibility Lab! groundhogr.com #psychscisky

Delighted to be hosting @fahrenfort.bsky.social for Wednesday's Consciousness Club talk "Criterion placement threatens the construct validity of neural measures of consciousness" Wed 27th Sept 11am-1230pm UK time For more information and how to join please see: metacoglab.org/consciousnes...
